I'll kick things off Joe by asking the question most fantasy owners are talking about today -- what are your thoughts about the big trade last night and its fantasy implications?

Thanks Tom.

Big news for Portis. His value takes a hit as Duckett's tough at the goalline. Between Duckett and Betts, I don't like what that means for Portis in close.

Big winner is Vick who gets another talented (albeit underachieving) WR. He also loses the goal line threat of Duckett and may sneak some in that he wouldn't have.

And Jerious Norwood gets a big bump. Dunn is 31 years old entering his 10th year. Norwood is in a great spot.

Who is the most overrated first rounder?

Joe ... what is your recommendation for Pick #4? Is Tiki going to hold up? Will Jacobs take over at the goal line?

Hi freddie,

Jackson over Brown but just barely. I like both a lot.

I like Chester Taylor a lot. Loving Hutchison at guard and Tony Richardson.

I'd say Droughns but I'm lukewarm on him.

Parker now. Bush long term.

Not a Chris Brown fan. I'd go Taylor I think. At least for now. Jones Drew looks great for later.

Loving Frank Gore.

Hi mg,

I think I'd go with Tiki there. He's just too well rounded. I do think Jacobs will get more looks but still I'd go with Barber.
